Quick question. On the front torsion leaves, are they (the 9 plates) suppose to be welded all togetherat the ends? When I took mine apart to check the bushings, the 3 middle were welded together with 1 set of outer leaves. The other 3 outer leaves were welded seperate or are they suppose to be all on the welds have just cracked?

Not a big deal if they cracked apart other than it can cause a bit of grief reinserting the arms.

I guess there shouldn't be a problem to retack them back together. Dave
